Revolutions don't start with guns or violence, they start with ideas that bring crowds together and/or make obvious a like-mindedness among large groups of people. The actual...real world...revolutions mostly due start with guns or violence. And without guns an violence they wouldn't get very far. Even with the "awesome unifying force" of hip hop. Oh, yeah...since you are all "unified" it is easier for the Government to run you over with a Tank, Tianemen Square Style.
Yes, there are ideas that bring those armed people together but Hip-Hop is not the source of these ideas.
Ok, it has universal appeal, so do a myriad of other vices and detrimental habits.

Dang, I must have missed all the shooting on CNN when the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Empire collapsed.
